TGM groups lose consistency with inbuilt tab groups #9

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
TGM groups appear to use the same structure as Firefox's Panorama. This can be 
seen by CTRL-SHIFT-E to view tabs groups in Panorama, which shows visually the 
same groups as TGM does in its bar. ("[X]" to exit Panorama)

However TGM is only updating part of the inbuilt Tab Group structures. As 
groups are created or tabs moved between them, Firefox loses tab group 
consistency between the two.

It's much easier to explain by showing how to reproduce it.

1. Along with TGM, install Multiple Tab Handler, and two other extensions: Pano 
and All-in-one sidebar. Configure the last two extensions so that Pano is 
always visible in the sidebar (makes it easier to see).

2. Now, have fun! Create some groups, suspend some groups, drag/move tabs 
between groups, and in the Pano sidebar, select a bunch of tabs and drag them 
to the tab bar or elsewhere in the Pano list, to move them between groups.

   (If Pano shows incorrect group names, or its grouping or ordering of tabs doesn't match that shown by TGM, that's good, it's what we're looking for!)

3. So far so good. If you do this, you'll probably find Pano showing tabs in 
groupings that don't match TGM, and tab groups with numeric "names" (2, 7) that 
don't match the groups TGM is showing.

4. Now... click CTRL-SHIFT-E to flick to Panorama view. Suddenly, Panorama does 
some kind of database update or refresh, and if you exit Panorama, you'll now 
find Pano sidebar shows tab groups that have been updated/refreshed, and *do* 
suddenly match TGM's.

Obviously there is some kind of update or refresh callback/hook that should be 
happening when TGM moves tabs and groups round, but isn't happening, and 
instead the refresh can be manually triggered by the user switching in and out 
of Panorama.
